  • From Limbo to Childhood
    INTRODUCTION FROM LIMBO TO CHILDHOOD “I don’t like all kids,” the late Maurice Sendak (1928–2012) once infamously declared. “Some of them are as awful as their parents.”1 Very young people, he believed, are not categorically alike. Sendak rejected the Enlightenment-based notion that children are “blank slates,” shape- able matter born to serve an enfranchised status quo by playing the socially desired role—in the case of modern childhood, that role was usually “the innocent.” Ideals of childhood innocence, he felt, reflected adults’ demands that children not know or feel, but instead primarily behave, submitting to dictation from an exclusionary society. Children, the artist asserted, were tragically socialized out of the fierce honesty and emotional transparency with which they are born and which few adults manage to maintain.2 He believed in children’s inherent capacity to differ from each other, to question, to know, to preserve endangered parts of the self, and to resist sanctioned injustices. In the artist’s own words, his work explores “how a child deals with revolutionary, tumul- tuous feelings that have no place in a given setting, like the classroom or his mother’s apartment.”3 Situated in broader cultural and historical contexts, the present study shines new light on Sendak’s own displaced Copyright © 2020.

  • Maurice Sendak Is Best Known As the Illustrator of More Than 100 Picture
    IN A NUTSHELL THE WORLDS OF MAURICE SENDAK aurice Sendak is best known as the illustrator of more than 100 picture books, including Where the Wild Things Are and In the Night Kitchen. Sendak was born in Brooklyn in 1928, and his childhood was typically MAmerican in a number of ways. He still reminisces about childhood friends, family dramas, and the sights and smells of New York in the 1930s. Yet, while he was growing up, he also felt a powerful attraction to the worn, black- and-white photographs of his European relatives: “When my mother and father came to America, which was just a few years before World War I, their family sent photographs. They were all murdered in concentration camps and I knew that at an early age . To go through the family album and to see what I thought were these beautiful people who were dead, was unbelievable. All of that was a re-creation of a world I never knew. And I was fascinated with the shtetl world of the European Jew.” The push and pull of New and Old Worlds in Sendak’s memory makes his work playful and dynamic, but also haunting and complex. This exhibit explores those threads of Jewish family, geography, and culture in Sendak’s life, and the way he imaginatively weaves them into his picture books. Maurice Sendak in his studio in 2007. The quotes in this exhibit come from Rosenbach Museum & Library interviews with Sendak in 2007 and 2008. Sendak has lived in Connecticut since the early 1970s.

Me acuciaba una pregunta: ¿cómo era posible que de aquellas páginas de papel, de aquellas hormiguitas negras que la surcaban se levantara un mundo ante mis ojos, mis oídos y mi corazón de niña? ¿Qué clase de magia, de sortilegio era aquel que sobrepasaba cuanto yo vivía o cuanto vivía a mi alrededor? Criaturas, deseos, sueños, personas y personajes, y tiempos desconocidos bullían allí1. En el bosque, discurso de la escritora Ana María Matute (Real Academia Española, 18 de enero de 1998) En Occidente, durante los siglos XVI y XVII, la lectura era una actividad oral y colectiva, reservada para religiosos, caballeros y literatos. Con la llegada de la alfabetización, en los albores del siglo XVII, los escolares aprendieron a decodificar caracteres.
